Recall Notice: Magnetic No-Pinch Buckle Infant Helmet

Product Update

At Schwinn we are dedicated to producing the highest quality bikes and accessories on the market. Schwinn is a family friendly company made up of moms and dads, and grandmas and grandpas, and aunts and uncles and our own children regularly use our products. We know that safety is your number one priority when buying one of our helmets for your child and it’s our number one priority when producing one. We are committed to the safety of our helmets and to the Schwinn Quality standard, using over 120 years of cycling heritage, passion and expertise to guide us.

Which products are affected?

The Magnetic No-Pinch Buckle Infant Helmet sold exclusively at Target.

The helmet and its straps come in various colors and design patterns. The buckles have small plastic covers and enclosed magnets. Only helmets with the unique type of magnetic no-pinch chin strap buckles shown below are affected by this recall.

Despite passing extensive global industry and regulatory testing, Schwinn has recently received three reports that the magnetic chin strap buckle on the Magnetic No-Pinch Buckle Infant Helmets sold exclusively at Target has small plastic covers and magnets that may come loose due to inadequate adhesive, posing a potential choking and magnet ingestion hazard. There have been no reported injuries among the 129,000 chin strap buckles sold since January 2014 that are being recalled. Safety is always our number one priority, and in an abundance of caution, Schwinn approached the CPSC to conduct a voluntary recall of the product.

What should I do?

Consumers should immediately take the helmets away from children and contact Schwinn for instructions on how to receive a free replacement helmet.
